Dr. Kelly Powers, a podiatric surgeon who often shared her expertise on Fox News, died Sunday following a battle with brain cancer. She was 45. A regular guest on Fox News and Fox Business Network, Powers survived heart failure—symptoms of which she experienced on air while covering that very topic. “It’s crazy–I went into heart failure while doing a report on Fox Business–live–on heart health and talking about the subtle signs that women often miss. You can’t make this up," she told Preferred Health Magazine after she had also faced a bout with glioblastoma, which was detected in 2020. After several surgeries, Powers underwent chemotherapy and radiation, and eventually recovered. During that time, she became pregnant and had a son, now 3. That cancer returned this year, however. “She was a brave and beautiful soul who could make friends anywhere she went,” an obituary reads. “Kelly had a love for people and she was dedicated to helping others.” Powers leaves behind her husband, Steven Doll, and son Bennett.
